Coming Together to Make a Difference in Your Community
Helping Hands of GA Metro is a 501 (c) (3) non profit organization committed to the pursuit of social impact. Our team of dedicated individuals work to address issues like food insecurity, in addition to providing access to chaplaincy services, and free educational resources. We are passionate about serving those in need, and driven to create spaces for individuals to grow and thrive.
Founded by the vision to create social change and advocate for mission driven initiatives, Helping Hands of GA Metro has consolidated the mission to “Serve Our Local Communities” with tangible public service. We could not do what we do with our volunteers and openly invite all interested to get involved!

HHGM Chaplaincy Division Leader: Anthony Johnson
Anthony has been dedicated to serving as a member of the clergy since 1998, with a deep passion for supporting and guiding God’s people in their spiritual growth. Throughout nearly 30 years of ministry, he has worked with diverse groups, including youth, young adults, and men, fostering their personal and collective journeys in faith. Anthony is committed to the belief that all Christians are called to witness and evangelize, sharing the love and salvation of God with those who have not yet experienced it.
As a chaplain, Anthony holds that it is our duty to be fully committed to God’s Word, and through that commitment, encourage others to come to know Him for themselves. He views prayer as a vital part of the Christian walk, not only for daily communication with the Lord but also for interceding on behalf of others during their times of need.
Anthony finds great joy in serving both in the local church and the broader community, and he sees his role as a chaplain as one of the most rewarding and important callings. His favorite scripture is Jeremiah 32:27: “Behold, I am the Lord, the God of all flesh: is there anything too hard for Me?”
